Abstract

From the aspect of traffic safety, the brake system is one of the most important systems. For all exploitation conditions, for which vehicles are projected, and for loads in prescribed boundaries, no matter to the vehicle speed, it is important, for the brake system to be reliable and to provide a very fast stop, or speed adjustment to road conditions. During the stop or during the speed adjustment it comes to the disc brakes temperature increment. So, because of this, the experimental investigations were conducted, in order to determine final values of the temperature for multiple braking processes until stop. In this paper, were conducted two experimental tests for the same vehicle, but for different speeds, which were 60 km/h and 80 km/h, while the other parameters (initial temperature, the mass of the simulated vehicle, number of repetitions) were the same for both tests. The conclusion is that by increment of the speed, rises the necessary time to stop the simulated vehicle, and by this, rises and the stopping distance. Also, rises and the temperature of the disc brake, with the increment of the vehicle speed.
